Administrators gav240z Posted November 7, 2019 Administrators Posted November 7, 2019 I missed this somehow.. https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2019/04/25/bring-a-trailer-rx7-sells-for-world-record-amount But world record? Typical North American centered evaluations from Hagerty, like when they look at 240z values, but forget S30Z values... I guess they also forget about the Spirit R and RZ and SP (AU homologation) models that have already sold for more..! HS30-H 1 Quote

Administrators gav240z Posted February 26, 2020 Administrators Posted February 26, 2020 https://www.motorious.com/articles/features/369111/collector-market-prices Picture that you are investing in a corporate bond, you have different levels of quality from a “AAA-Investment grade” bond all the way down to a “Junk-Bond/High-Yield” bond. From the outside the companies may appear the same, they are both public companies and each has a great brand, but when we look into the financials, one is outstanding, and one is leveraged with debt. For example, let’s compare two 1967 Corvette 427/435’s. One has every award in the country you can obtain, documentation, this car has been seen by every expert and is a (AAA) example, another car that looks exactly as this car, but does not have any judging, does not have any history or documentation and may or may not be, “matching numbers” (could be a “B”, “CCC”, or “Junk”) rating. The average person that is new to the hobby does not know the difference until they are explained this, the only thing they see is the one car that rolled across the block and “appears,” like an example that is a AAA piece. They don’t know why the auction car is valued “x” and the other car is valued at “2x” the price. Quote

Instead of making conservative investments in life insurance, mutual funds, or real estate, he put all his savings into the collection. Though considered an unconventional strategy at the time, Petitjean's decision helped him to avoid the worldwide savings and loan scandal and the European debt crisis altogether. Quote
